Title A name given to the resource Digital transformation in business and society: theory and cases Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert E. Hinson Description An account of the resource Theory and Cases, edited by George Babu and Justin Paul, brings together ‘different perspectives from experts on how the data revolution has shaped different regions, industries, and domains’ (2). This book documents how the integration of digital technology into all areas of business and society fundamentally changes the way businesses operate and deliver services to their consumers. Babu George is Associate Professor of Management at Fort Hays State University, USA, while Justin Paul is Professor at the Graduate School of Business, University of Puerto Rico, and member of Rollins College, Florida, USA. Justin Paul is known widely for his introduction of the so-called Masstige model and measures for brand management, the CPP Model for describing and comparing the internationalization strategies along with the ‘7-Ps’ framework used in the study and practice of international marketing. The book reviewed here is a timely and significant publication for several reasons. Firstly, we are living in an age of rapid digitalization. In the information and communication technology (ICT) sector, there has indeed been a global revolution resulting in radical changes in the way people communicate with each other. This revolution has had an enormous impact on the way international business is conducted. In the space of 50 years, the digital world has grown to become crucial to the functioning of society. To illustrate, a recent study reports that 95% of young American adults own a cell phone and 97% of these cell owners use text messaging. Furthermore, 90% of young adults use social networking sites (Abatayo, Lynham, and Sherstyuk, 2017). Secondly, we can observe both positive and negative aspects of societal digitization: we can note current controversies surrounding globally networked enterprises such as Facebook. In their edited collection, George and Paul as editors allow a balanced view on both the threats and opportunities that the digital transformation of business and society create. The book comprises 16 chapters, contributed by some seasoned and some early-career scholars. In an introductory chapter, Babu George, the principal editor, incisively sketches a comprehensive picture for understanding the issues and problems with regard to the digital revolution. As he observes: ‘we have some evidence to support the claim that the digital revolution has helped us improve not just our business enterprises but our overall standard of living as a community of people, around the world’ (2). In chapter 2, Maria Lai-Ling Lam and Kei-Wing Wong explore the human flourishing in smart cities by focusing on the characteristics and relevant issues of two of Asia’s foremost ‘smart cities’: Singapore and Songdo, in the Republic in Korea. The study generates the following interesting arguments. First, Singapore and Songo are highly centralized and developed to attract foreign investments and competitiveness. The authors indicate that the cities attached huge amount of China-sourced inward financial investments and tourists. Both cities are framed as a smart city with all computerized accessible buildings and electrical sensors. They are managed through a centralized operating system that combines data analytics, big data, and urban informatics. Second, the standard of living in both cities is – by national and international comparisons – relatively high. However, the authors highlight some notable human and environmental concerns. For instance, Singapore’s smart city development plan was publicly criticized for its ‘lack of citizen’s participation’ (22). A process of so-called ‘McDonaldization’ continues and, therefore, citizens are treated as consumers and entrepreneurs in these smart cities Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available ASIA PACIFIC BUSINESS REVIEW Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/13602381.2020.1738074 Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/0e2ec1e348b6a6924bb494101418be2b.pdf a64aa6f9d3b9f7c2d20a9b22dff18abe Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Text Description An account of the resource While digitization is far from a new concept, many assume that simply introducing automation and information systems in various forms will be enough to make their organization's operations more efficient. This misconception can often lead to disarray and costly mistakes. Digital Transformation: Understanding Business Goals, Risks, Processes, and Decisions shows how to avoid such issues via careful consideration of what an enterprise really needs. Unlike many other books on digital transformation, the authors do not dwell on database design or the details of implementing information systems. Instead, they emphasize the importance of a clear understanding of all aspects of an organization in order to effectively implement and manage digital systems, from business goals and strategies to structuring information and making decisions, risk assessments, project management, organizing, and procuring services and products. Organized in eleven chapters and drawing on examples from all over the world, this book will be of interest to university students of business administration, management, information systems, and computer science, as well as practitioners seeking to better understand how to handle digital transformation in their own organizations. https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/5a3207c0c9dde36d00f0a3fc1d5dc95a.pdf 10828445e2f4fe967c9f7b50471e62e0 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Digitize or Perish Subject The topic of the resource Library Science Description An account of the resource In today’s knowledge and technology-driven society, most scholarly information is increasingly being produced and distributed in digital formats. Yet, in Sub-Saharan Africa, academic libraries have been very slow at joining this digital movement and hence stand the risk of losing their relevance, particularly with regard to locally generated intellectual material. To better serve the knowledge and information seeking needs of their patrons, librarians need to reinvent services. The challenges are discussed as well as prescriptions of workable strategies that librarians, information scientists, and other stakeholders can adopt to overcome these barriers. Such strategies mostly involve appropriately leveraging the existing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools and resources to make library resources more accessible. Consequently, digitizing indigenous intellectual resources may keep libraries from perishing and respond to user needs and information seeking habits in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Title A name given to the resource Disaster Preparedness in Selected University Libraries in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Afua Frempong-Kore, Samuel Ameyaw, Edward Asante Description An account of the resource The study examined disaster preparedness in academic libraries in Ghana. The researchers adopted a mixed method for this study. Three university libraries in Ghana were selected to find out about their level of disaster preparedness. The population consisted of 52 professionals and paraprofessionals from the selected academic libraries. A questionnaire and interview guide were adopted to collect the data. The quantitative data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (22.0 version), whereas the qualitative data were analysed using Nvivo software (20.0). The study established that all academic library staff were aware of disasters. However, staff training in disaster management programmes was inadequate. The study confirmed that, besides fire extinguishers, none of the libraries surveyed had any other disaster-resistant equipment.
